Can psychotherapeutic competence be taught?
This paper is presented in defense of an educational concept for psychotherapists, which is based on the proposition that attitudes as well as behavioral components can be shaped by training. The training program contains the process of observing, reflecting and practicing individual segments of constructive therapeutic behavior as a part of education in client-centered therapy.
